The Anglo-American Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) is a valid and reliable self-reported measure to detect functional deficits in chronic lateral ankle instability. The purpose of this study was to translate, cross-culturally adapt and validate the FAAM questionnaire for use with German-speaking patients with chronic lateral ankle instability.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Patients\/Participants<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Preoperative and conservatively treated patients with chronic lateral ankle instability.
